Facebook Update Adds Fast App Switching, High-Resolution Icons

June 30, 2010

Facebook has just been given the update treatment, acquiring the now fairly common fast app switching ability and high-resolution icons that will definitely be a treat for all of you iPhone 4 users out there. Fast app switching will finally allow you to pop out of Facebook to do other tasks and bounce right back in without losing your place, even if you were in the middle of composing a message.  The app has also been updated to support the iPhone 4's high-resolution display, sporting crystal clear icons.  We took a before and after shot just so you could see the difference. Facebook v3.1.4 includes Russian and Korean localizations, as well as a few bug fixes. Without Joe Hewitt at the helm, updates seem to be taking much longer than many of us would prefer, but later is better than never.  Now how about the iPad optimization, Facebook?
